Unofficial UK Slalom BBS

Popsting on UK Rivers Guidebook on Thursday @6:51: I live in north wales, theres plenty of water for everyone....... as a guide, you cant see the water mark at mile end, its gone :) So it is likely that Llangollen WOULD have been to high to run an event safely. Thansk Mrs H for trying to keep the e...

Well not always. . . A few years ago Llangollen was too high to hang the gates, and there was no where for the rescue to go below the bridge just a rather fast eddy :o .

Nothing against MEM, but if we turn up in Llangollen it undermines the economic impact. Tryweryn could be a good alternative if it is available, th...

There is an e-mail address in th year book, and as it is a hotmail one, he might pick it up from abroad as well!

The jury even changed which pole it was that he hit! Peter Horster recorded PENALTY CHANGE Previous Communication about BIB number 5, 2 second penalty should have read gate 7 Athlete number 5 had a 2 second penalty at gate number 7, that was not communicated by the section judge to the data entry op...

I am running a competition, how many times will Campbell be described as 'English' on Thursday and Friday :laugh: Then when (think +ve) he wins the Gold, how many papers will remember to call him British or describe him as a Scot? ps 'expert comentators' yee of short memories - remember Kidda, and o...
